this is hilariously demented but also true! if you read "the west" to mean "fash international", which is what these guys always mean by "the west", and it absolutely needs X The Everything App

This is like Mr Rogers picking up Mjolnir

Polish Foreign Minister replies to Musk: 🇵🇱

The devaluation of human effort and the devaluation of human life are near akin and have many of the same partisans

I just know Brian Montague will explode in rage over this.

"The City’s own data indicate that conflicts involving right-turning vehicles are among the most common types of pedestrian collisions ... If adopted, these changes would mark one of the most significant intersection-safety reforms in Vancouver in years." dailyhive.com/vancouver/va...

I've been saying this for a year now: the Democrats have missed a gigantic political opportunity--and, at this point, have failed in an ethical obligation--to create a shadow-government health department that dispenses medically accurate information, guidance, and advice.

This holiday season I’ll be playing Mass Effect for the first time.

Gotta say a change in UI design leadership at Apple is the best news for the company in a long time. When you’re shipping something like this, you're in deep, deep trouble. There’s a lot to fix.

As we feared, we are hearing that transportation staff were hit hard by today's layoffs. The loss of expertise and capacity will reverberate for years. In its last year in office, Vancouver council is using scorched earth tactics to derail progress on road safety and lock in the deadly status quo.

Poilievre asks BC Conservative leader for tips on just refusing to leave

Won't be into work today, my professional incapacitations are acting up (BC kids will get this)

For day 4 of #artadventcalendar a drawing I made of one of Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin's insulin models focussing on the negative spaces 🐡 Promarkers, felt-tip pens and pencil on paper From my blogpost about the challenges of insulin folding www.kathryngarner.co.uk/blog/peptide...

These are open fascists and they are attempting to accelerate America into open totalitarian fascism and forever war against he world. These people must be stopped no matter the cost.

We had volunteers on the Transportation advisory committee. It was a great way to get the ear of council and it led to some really positive conversations and momentum. It would be very damaging to remove these committees.

Committees like these enable volunteers to contribute their time towards building and maintaining a city. Their time is worth millions of dollars and their advice saves millions more. Cutting these might save $160,000 in expense, but it will cost 10 times that amount to pay staff for half the work.

Oh no, not this guy...

At St. Clarens loop, HARBORD cars connected with 41 KEELE buses, and did so from 1957 to 1966. Here, we see air-electric TTC PCC #4139 meeting up with TTC GM New Look bus #3353 at the loop. ⌚December 18, 1965 📷 Rob McMann #TTC #TransitToronto #Streetcar #PublicTransit #TakeTheTTC #Toronto

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries: “Strong floor, no ceiling” Colombian President Gustavo Petro: “A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy.”

i think this is my favourite delivery of this joke

Election loss hopium mining irks me. “This loss means we’re on track to win” assumes static conditions until the next election while out of power. Stop thinking chess pieces are lining up while the other side smashes the board with a hammer. Only winning is winning.

If you ever wondered what GOP gerrymandering looks like in red states with blue cities, I present:

the endless warm drizzle of spring—the ice of Antarctica, falling softly on the heads of the children of those responsible for melting it.

many people were asking for it and now the full cut of the onion parody of jubilee debates is now up on youtube!

There is a fifth wave of ska, beyond that which is known to rude boys

Judging from the quotes in here, university admins are some of the least “ai literate” people in existence. No wonder they think students need to be taught how to use it.

I bet this carefully crafted Giving Tuesday email would be more effective if there weren't ten others just like it in my inbox.

Rainway Sketching something similar to the St. George rainway on Lakewood Street (next to Secord elementary) given the amount of traffic that flows through there while we’re biking to and from school… i’ve been imagining a Rainway running from the top of the hill all the way to Trout Lake.

“Daylight, Air and a Social Stair” Bike Oriented Development on quieter side streets, with accessible stacked flats (and cargo bike parking)

i’m setting you free. i’m releasing you from the discourse

I named my fists Jehova and Witness because I’m about to ring some bells

This explains something that has always mystified me about drivers who rail against bike lanes and transit. Why WOULDN'T you want people to have options not to drive? It would make your own driving better! But they don't just want good traffic, they want to reinforce the NORM of driving

Happy "let's circle back in the New Year" season to all who celebrate.

“Imagine if we truly understand complex whale communication & can extend our term ‘language’ to them. Such breakthroughs would not only rewrite biology textbooks but also fundamentally redefine what it means to be human & pave the way to instituting new protections for whales, the ocean & beyond”🧪

How much ketamine does it take to hit the Harkonnen phase?

“To protect British Columbians from both the tyranny of choosing their own representatives and the horrors of not having large oil tankers fill the waters off their northern coast, I have sadly had to use the legal means at my disposal to make myself premier.” www.thebeaverton.com/2025/11/dani...

The results are clear. Painted lanes lead to more cyclists being killed or seriously injured. Cycle tracks (i.e. protected lanes) are much safer and lead to huge increases in cycling. This is data from Vancouver. Our politicians should stop ignoring it.

We belong dead

Being pro cycling and anti trans is bizarre to me. Imagine belonging to a constantly threatened cohort and not being able to recognize the solidarity with another.
